Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Florida

''Quit Claim Deed over 13 months ago''

In--name removed--lawsuit that lasted over 3 years,--name removed--lis pendens was put upon--name removed--house which was then under the names of the parents and their only child - age 47 (who was in the civil lawsuit) After opposing counsel listed the lis pendens,--name removed--quit claim was done and the daughters name removed. The lawsuit continued and ended with an order for the daughter to pay opposing counsel fees and ex husband.

Daughter is now trying go bankrupt for all monies owed in the lawsuit. Does this constitute fraud? She lives in the house,they have owned and sold homes in the past always with all three names on the deed. They are not American citizens and the daughter has--name removed--green card.

Is this not fraudulent? Can they not put--name removed--lien against the house to get payment?

How can--name removed--European w--name removed--green card be allowed to go bankrupt when they haven't contributed anything in the US?

Thank you.
